Boom—!!
Cat Girl Duoduo detonated the Myriad-Foot Centipede's hundred-meter-long body with her Soul Skill, Corpse Explosion. The powerful blast roared skyward, throwing the surrounding Star Dou Great Forest into violent turmoil.
Shrill howls erupted from the Soul Beasts deep within the forest, clearly expressing their concern for the Scarlet King, the Ape King, and the Silver Wolf Emperor. Vast quantities of broken stone and gravel shot in every direction like fragments of the exploding Myriad-Foot Centipede. Then whole stretches of woodland began to totter, releasing helpless groans. Towering trees over a century old resembled dying lives, seemingly about to crash down in the very next instant.
"Boom—!!"
With another deafening roar, Cat Girl Duoduo put the Myriad-Foot Centipede's remaining blood to use and unleashed Corpse Explosion again. A scorching wave surged outward from where the centipede had stood. Accompanied by an earthshaking thunderclap, billowing smoke rose like a sandstorm that blotted out the sky, while crimson flames blossomed with bewitching beauty, like alluring red spider lilies vying to outshine one another.
Violent explosions rang out without end. Swathes of trees collapsed one after another, and deep-red bloody light splashed everywhere, like blooming red roses, dazzling and seductive.
The heavy stench of blood spread in every direction, filling half the sky, growing fainter layer by layer until it became a pale red.
Soft, transparent, clear, damp air floated in the sky.
Witnessing all this, Cat Girl Duoduo, the culprit behind the explosions, showed none of the joy or excitement others might have imagined. Instead, she scanned her surroundings warily.
She did not believe the mighty Scarlet King and Silver Wolf Emperor would perish so easily in an explosion. Powerful though it was, it could not kill two elite Ferocious Beasts with over two hundred thousand years of cultivation in one blow.
